Dave Grohl Surprises Fans with Fresh Single and Reconciliation Moves After Personal Scandal
Rock icon Dave Grohl is making headlines again—this time not for headline-making personal revelations, but for returning to form both musically and personally. On July 2, the Foo Fighters released their first new song since the lead singer’s public confession of fathering a fourth child outside his marriage. The single, titled “Today’s Song”, signals a fresh chapter following an emotional period for the band
“Today’s Song” is a reflective power‑ballad celebrating the Foo Fighters’ 30-year journey. It features a powerful tribute to former members and heartfelt drum work, as well as cover art by Grohl’s daughter Harper—a meaningful touch that bridges his family life and creative legacy The lyrics emphasize optimism and overcoming adversity, echoing the band’s collective resilience through both personal and professional challenges.
The timing of the release is notable. It comes after Grohl publicly acknowledged his infidelity in September 2024, admitting to fathering a child outside his 23‑year marriage to wife Jordyn Blum . In the months since, Grohl has focused on repairing his family ties. The couple’s first public appearance post-scandal took place at Wimbledon 2025, suggesting a gradual path toward reconciliation
Support from peers has been cautious but encouraging. Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor described Grohl’s situation as “100% messy” but urged fans to show grace, defending Grohl as “one of the nicest people on the planet”
Despite being rocked by scandal, Foo Fighters appear to be pressing forward. The band is slated to resume live performances in October, kicking off with shows in East Asia and Mexico
Bottom line: With “Today’s Song,” Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters are turning adversity into art—rejoining the stage and studio with renewed purpose and a message of redemption.
